I joined a Cardio health club and been working out a little over a month . Not trying to be Arnold , but do I feel better . I remember Mac blimping up when he was building . He seems to be back in shape last I saw the stranger. I couldn't help but notice all the builders in the Portly Anglers club . Health Club cuts into my plug building time for sure . My quota's way off ..

I was always wondering too if plug builders contract any respiratory problems from all the dust and fumes they inhale.... I couldn't help but wonder if that led to Hab's diminished health. Was just interested in knowing because I know some builder's spend all day in the "cave" breathing the same air.

god bless john.... best needle i got ;)

I just converted over to a zero micron dust collector setup.
I pipe the stuff into a garbage can outside. :tooth:

I can't see the bottom of my bench top. I haven't even cleaned the sand off my waders, but I hit the gym 5 to 6 times a week in the off season. health is my main concern. I will work on some plugs soon:fury:

I suspect wood dust was not the problem, but long term exposure can cause lung disease and sinus cancer.

I know the dust and chemicals are bad . I was thinking the more tedious inactive factory bench worker ..

Being fat and having an overwhelming desire to continuosly make plugs at the same time is all due to a defective genetic makeup.

Your DNA strand has a few "gaps".

Hey, That is how I make my living. You guys are making me feel more out of shape than I thought I was.

I got a Golden. She drags me to the kitchen several times a day and we eat cookies.

I got a black lab and I drag her - just kidding - she blimped up at one point - I started walking her and switched her to better food and she's fit again

Hey, I'm down 12 lbs an almost 2 belt loop sizes...
I know feel thin..at 267 lbs..
I had to take 2 weeks off from the gym.I will hit it hard next week..
My goal is 230 which I have not seen in at least 12 yrs..
Chuck Ledell better Look Out then MFer'
It's all anout the genes.or is it the next size up jeans..'
I'm so confused..It's a good time to make plugs.
:humpty:
what did I hit to make it so dark??
I kinda agree on one aspect there are only so many hrs in a day but
when I'm in shape I certainly have more energy to take advantage of the time that is available thats for sure....
U lug a 50 lb bag of fat around an it wears u out by the end of the day.
I know one thing, if I spent half as much time on this putr I would be way more productive.But then I would miss all the special threads like this one.
I think I'm gonna move the computr to the garage.
